Welcome to my online diary, enjoy your stay!
In November 2005 whilst home recovering from an operation I decided to try and design a web page for White Springs Fisheries in Pontarddulais I soon started adding info on the fishery website page of my community activities, but as I got more and more involved in community projects, I decided to start this blog in order to keep my community activities and involvement seperate to the fishing. You can email me with comments at slloydjanes@aol.com
Info about me
In 2008 I was sucessfully elected as a county councillor for Carmarthen County CouncilI am involved in the Llanelli CAB

I am also a member of the Pontarddulais and Hendy District Carnival Committee. Which celebrated its 40th year in JUNE 2008.
I have been a member of USDAW since 1989 and I am the Llanelli Usdaw Union Branch Secretary, I have done a lot of campaigning with Usdaw and I often appear in the quarterly magazine that gets published and sent to Usdaw Members, here's just one example
I have also been Hendy community councillor on Llanedi Community Council since 2004
In May 2008. As a county councillor for Hendy on the Carmarthen County Council elections.
I sit on several scrutiny committees
This Blog contains a mixture of White Springs News, Community news from Hendy and some political comments and activities, hope you enjoy your visit
I had a decision to make today after Nia Griffith MP gave me a ring about a case she was working on in Hendy, she asked was I attending her Public Meeting consultation on care for the eldery
Unfortunately it clashed with the monthly PACT meeting which I attended instead.
Last month there had been three councillors including myself, this month I was the only councillor to attend, until the very end, it started at 6pm and at 6.40pm one of the Llangennech councillors turned up just as we were summorising the priorities for the month.
There were quite a few from the Hendy area as there were mainly Hendy residents present
Next month because it falls on a bank holiday they will be moving it to a Tuesday as a one off.
The Community Seargent stated that there's an article on the community policing team appearing shortly in the Star, highlighting their key priorities and how the team work etc and he stated they would use the Star to advertise the change of date next month
below were two posters, one is the police meeting, the second was advertising Nia's consultation, she's running a similar session later in the month in Pontyberem on a Friday afternoon
